INTRODUCTION
 Workshops and small-scale industries are heavily constrained to use general purpose machine due
to financial limitation. Lathes and milling machines are popular with these groups since they need
little capital and are simple to maintain. Researchers are always attempting to assist these
businesses through innovative ideas and new ways to expand the scope of their output utilizing
these general-purpose machines.
 A wide range of accessories are already in use in these industries. Although various attachments
are already in use in these industries like keyways, slotting, internal keyway, grinding wheel and
eccentric turning for lathe machine. Still it’s facing many difficulties like machining of gear
cutting and splines on the shaft. These papers are helping lathe machine to obtain maximum
efficiency and utilization. To overcome this difficulty, it is necessary to design an attachment for
the lathe. Which is able to overcome these difficulties and flexible to use it in standard lathes.
OBJECTIVE
 The main objective of the project is to Design and Fabrication of Gear Cutting
Attachment for lathe machine.
 As gear cutting operation are generally perform on milling machine and the initial
cost of milling machine is also very high, which is not economical for the small
scale industries and small workshops.
 So this attachment will reduce the initial investment cost of small scale industries
for milling which can use their lathe machine for gear cutting operations
PROBLEM STATEMENT
 Milling and shaping process requires costly machine tools and equipment's which is not
affordable for a small scale industry and workshops.
 Then our problem is that we have to find out such method or technique which can be used
to manufacture teeth on gear without using such a costly machine tool.
 Hence our need is that we have to find out a cheap alternative method for gear production.
METHODOLOGY
 The concept and design for the product was gathered from the brainstorming and
research process. During the research process, observation on current skill was
made. The milling attachment need to be attached on the lathe machine. In this
chapter the information that included is Basic drawing and design, Design of
component, Selection of component as per suitability, Working and calculation. It
also allows others to replicate our study and run new and different studies that are
based on our methodology.
 Software used for design and modelling is Fusion360.

• Fix the attachment in place of tool post.
• Fix the work piece on the stepped shaft, facing the
milling cutter.
• shaft is rotated in metal block when indexing is
performed, while in cutting it remains in rest position.
WORKING •
•
Mark the area to be machined on the work piece.
The shaft which is in metal block slider can also be
moved in vertical direction according to diameter of
work piece and there is nut bolt arrangement is provided
for locking of metal block slider in C channel.
• Move the cross slide towards the milling cutter till the
work piece surface gets in contact with the tip of the
exterior tooth of the milling cutter.
• Switch on the lathe and allow the headstock to rotate in
anti-clockwise direction.
• Give the necessary depth of cut for rough cut.
• Feeding motion for this shaft is provided by the rotating
the carriage wheel against the motion of cutting tool.
• Move the cross slide back to release the work piece from
the cutter.
• Indexing is performed to rotate the work piece for the next
teeth.
• Move the carriage of the lathe for the next cut.
CONCLUSION
 Increased versatility
 Simple in operating
 Floor area reduced
 Cost of manufacturing is reduced
 Ultimately helpful for small and medium scale industries
 Boosts the overall productivity of the industry
 Mass scale manufacturing can be done.
 This attachment for gear cutting can be employed in
FUTURE Drilling machine also as we obtain rotation motion from
the spindle, the only constraint is to modifying the
SCOPE 
table…
Can be upgraded for machining mild steel gears.
 Will reduce the cost i.e. Incurred in milling operation…
